Every now and then, we see our favorite celebrity in a look that reminds us of how fun and whimsical fashion can be—all it takes is one statement piece, really. Such is the case with Marian Rivera, who recently carried one of Matthieu Blazy's highly coveted Chanel bags.
While it is clear that Marian is a big fan of the creative director's work because of her growing Matthieu Blazy for Chanel collection, it was such a fabulous surprise to see the actress with the Mini Flap Bag from the Métiers d'Art 2026 show.

Celebrity stylist Melville Sy of Studio 24c held an exclusive shopping and private styling session at Bvlgari, who recently named Marian as an official Friend of the House. The actress wore a tailored, light denim-colored SAU LEE vest and pants with hand-tied pipa knots.
For her jewelry, Marian wore a series of Bvlgari Serpenti pieces—the Viper earrings, the Tubogas watch, and Viper bracelet. Hairstylist Nante Alingasa gave Marian a slick ponytail, while makeup artist Juan Sarte opted for a chic daytime look—light smokey eye with a defined liner, flushed cheeks, and a satin nude lip.
Addressing the giraffe in the room, the pièce de résistance of Marian's ensemble is the lambskin, dark burgundy, and gold-toned Chanel 11.12 bag that features a polished metal giraffe! It's a classic with a twist—a phrase that can also describe the actress whose timeless beauty is complemented with her fun and effervescent personality.

First seen on the 24th look from the Métiers d'Art 2026 collection, this particular Mini Flap Bag is a handbag that juxtaposes fashion and function. While the price is available upon request on the Chanel website, a post on the Chanel subreddit reveals that the bag is at an estimated $22,900 (approximately P1.4-million).
